The story of how Trump sells access to the White House - to benefit himself and his family financially and to benefit his political operation - is shocking and sordid.

No President has ever monetized access like Trump has.

1/ It's a story you need to know.

Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics simply because he didn’t like the data. A hallmark of authoritarian leadership is being unable to accept reality and taking that out on people simply doing their jobs. 

“The revelation this weekend of an American Jewish nonprofit’s involvement in promoting an Israeli politician in the throes of an election campaign comes after years of attacks by Netanyahu on liberal leaning foreign nonprofits promoting civil society in Israel.”

Sportswriter Calls Out ‘F***ing Golf Cheat’ Trump Over New Viral Course Video Rick Reilly blasts the president while sharing a clip of Trump’s caddie performing an illegal ball-dropping move on the green.

A sportswriter hit out at Trump while sharing a viral clip that appears to show the president’s caddie illegally dropping a ball on the green during a round.

this is an absolute twenty alarm fire and I just cannot bring myself to believe capital, in one way or another, isn’t going to reel him in on this.

we can’t have a real economy without the goddamn labor numbers. it just doesn’t work.

The real scandal here is how deeply embedded Mothership is with the Democratic establishment. It was founded by DCCC alumni and continues to work closely with party leaders. It’s way worse than I thought. And it’s infuriating they continue to allow preying on people to enrich consultants.

The Mothership Vortex: An Investigation Into the Firm at the Heart of the Democratic Spam Machine How a single consulting firm extracted $282 million from a network of spam PACs while delivering just $11 million to actual campaigns.

The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand:

$678M raised through those spam tactics

$282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies.

$11M to actual campaigns (1.6%)

The party isn’t just treating donors like marks—it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.

This deal alone is justification enough to dismantle the DNC, DSCC, & DCCC. 👇🏻

Here you go. It does rhyme with children.

I really think more people should point this out. Like, whenever you think of Ghislaine, think of children.

If you support trump, you're supporting a pedophile.

CNBC Lora Kolodny article: Tesla must pay portion of $329 million in damages after fatal Autopilot crash, jury says Key Points A jury in Florida determined that Tesla should be held partly liable for a fatal 2019 Autopilot crash. The company must pay a portion of $329 million in damages to victims and a survivor, including compensatory and punitive damages. Tesla had argued that the driver’s behavior was to blame for the fatal crash, while plaintiffs claimed Tesla’s Autopilot technology was flawed and deceptively marketed.

Elon tweet: "Teslas can drive themselves!"

Two days ago: Tesla has to pay hundreds of millions of dollars for deceptively marketing Autopilot in a way that falsely made people think it could drive the car by itself.

Today: Elon Musk "Teslas can drive themselves!"

Students rally in Dhaka, pledge to build a 'new Bangladesh' amid political uncertainty A new political party formed by students who led an anti-government movement that ousted the former prime minister has rallied in Bangladesh’s capital.

📽️ WATCH: “The U.S. sent us to El Salvador so that El Salvador could do the dirty work that the U.S. couldn’t.”

Hear from Juan José Ramos Ramos, Andry Omar Blanco Bonilla and Wilmer José Vega Sandia — three of 230+ Venezuelan men the Trump administration sent to CECOT — in their own words:

The Epstein files — by Heather Marsh

"This month, what I have mostly been hearing are demands for ‘the Epstein files’. For some, this is a very reasonable demand for a working justice system and a rare point that most people in the US can agree on." #opdeatheaters #3E #Epstein #Maxwell

a fun game to play with BLS numbers is to go “that’s stupid, why do they do it that way” and then go find the paper explaining why they do it that way to see if you still think it’s stupid, and if you do, you win

I am like 0 for 19 lifetime at this game

Theoretically yes. Practically, no. A Texas lege member makes about $45K per two year term. They have other jobs and obligations that can't be avoided forever. -OS

It's difficult to find a pressure point on Texas Republicans that will actually work because these are the people who watched the Guadalupe wash their own children into the Gulf and turned their palms toward the skies. "Welp. Shit happens."

Holy shit, you guys.

I just read Curtis Yarvin'a actual writing instead of a summary.

The man is 51 years old, treated as an intellectual by the Sand Hill elite, and he writes like the most annoying freshman honors student who ever discovered Nietzsche from a comic book guide to philosophy.

My profound thanks to Rev. Stephen A. Green and the Greater Allen AME for the honor of addressing their beautiful congregation in Jamaica, Queens this morning.

still thinking about the Montana knife maker who said you don't have to worry about tariffs if you buy american. and then three months later, he realized he imports swedish steel and german equipment. and even MiUSA equipment costs $100k more now because of tariffs

There’s a whole bunch of crazy coming out of Tennessee. Including a bunch of laws to make public school terrible (no doctors notes, no fundraising for classrooms).

All while it’s moving fast up towards the highest murder rate in the country.

Going to start calling chatbots sycophancy as a service.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

A fun reminder that a loss of 60,000 jobs in and around academia is ~50% more than all coal mining jobs in the entire country.

I repeat, it's incredible that these people don't spontaneously burst into flames.

CLARIFICATION: I’m interested in learning where Lara Trump put Charlamagne THA GOD.

If you have info about where Lara Trump put Charlemagne, King of the Franks, I suggest that you reach out to the New York Times!!
